    Hi Moonrakermagpie

    I had trouble at one time. Photobucket wouldn't show the tags at all. You may have to wiggle the cursor around a bit to get the right spot to get it copied, and you must click it. Or it may have done it so quickly that you were unaware it had been done. The way to practice is to write your post as usual and then select the 'Go Advanced' button at the bottom. This will give you a preview as if you had posted. But at this stage it hasn't been posted, so you can have another go or abandon it.

    If this fails you could copy the text in the more normal way of highlighting it by draging the mouse over it and then right click/copy. Or you could even type the text in if you had to. It might be worth experimenting with the last two just to see what the proper entry should be. However it is possible that the fault is not yours, and that it is somewhere in the software. The fault I had with Photobucket persisted for several days and then cured itself. Be aware that you need the bottom [​IMG]

    I use the 'img' code myself, not the direct link one.

    I then paste that code into whatever thread it is
